Suleiman Hani | The Medina Model | 15th MAS ICNA Convention

One earliest applications of tolerance and coexistence occurred in Medina upon the arrival of the Prophet (peace be upon him) with the establishment of a covenant between Muslims and citizens of other religions in Medina. Differences in beliefs, socioeconomic status, race, and religion were never barriers against peaceful coexistence and positive collaboration. Accepting differences and respecting personal preferences does not diminish one’s beliefs and convictions.
